Hermeneutics As an Art of Understanding According to Schleiermacher
Abstract
This study aims to highlight the significance of Schleiermacher's contributions to hermeneutics. His work marked a pivotal moment in the history of this field, which covered various disciplines, including theology, literature, law, and mythology. Over time, hermeneutics has evolved into an "art of understanding." This study explores whether Schleiermacher sought to establish coherent, methodological principles or if his refusing these efforts allowed hermeneutics to develop into a science on its own.
The study also examines how Schleiermacher became known as the father of modern hermeneutics and how his influence shaped both the general theories of hermeneutics during his time and subsequent philosophical thought
Keywords: Schleiermacher, hermeneutics, art of understanding, philosophy
